Lyrics
Your (Eb)story's sad to (Cm7)tell:
a (Fm7)teenage (Bb)ne'erdowell;
most (Gm7)mixedup (Cm7)nondelinquent on the (Fm7)block.
(Bb)Your (Gm7)future's so (C7)unclear now.
What's (Fm7)left of your (Db9)career now?
Can't (Eb)even get a (Cm7)tradein on your (Abm6)smock.
(Bb)Beauty school (Eb)dropout,
(Cm)no (Fm7)graduation day for (Bb)you.
Beauty school (Eb)dropout,
(Cm)missed your (Ab)midterms and flunked (Bb)shampoo.
Well, at (Eb)least you could have (Cm)taken time to (Fm7)wash and clean your (Bb)clothes up,
after (Gm)spending all that (Cm)dough to have the (Fm7)doctor fix your (Bb)nose up.
Baby, get (Eb)moving.
(Cm)Why keep your (Fm7)feeble hopes (Bb)alive?
What are you (Eb)proving?
(Cm)You've got the (Ab)dream, but not the (Bb)drive.
If you (Eb)go for your (Ebaug)diploma,
you could (Ab)join the steno (Db9)pool.
Turn in your (Eb)teasing (Cm)comb and (Fm7)go back (Bb)to high (Eb)school.
(B6)Beauty school (E)dropout,
(C#m)hanging (F#m7)around the corner store.
(B)Beauty school (E)dropout,
(C#m)it's about (A)time you knew the (B)score.
Well, they (E)couldn't teach you (C#m)anything.
You (F#m7)think you're such a (B)looker.
But no (G#m)customer would (C#m)go to you (F#m)unless she was a (B)hooker.
Baby. don't (E)sweat it.
(C#m)You're not cut (F#m7)out to hold a (B)job.
Better (E)forget it.
(C#m)Who wants their (A)hair done by a (B)slob?
Now your (E)bangs are curled, your (Eaug)lashes twirled,
but (A)still the world is (D9)cruel.
Wipe off that (E)angel (C#m)face and (F#m7)go back (B)to high (E)school.
(B)Baby, don't (E)blow it.
(C#m)Don't put my (F#m7)good advice to (B7)shame.
Baby, you (E)know it.
(C#m)Even Dear (A)Abby'd say the (B)same.
Now, I've (E)called the shot.
Get (Eaug)off the pot.
I (A)really gotta (D9)fly.
